Property Oracle says ..

The property is a 2-bedroom apartment located in Folkestone, Kent, with a list price of £217,500. The apartment is situated on Royal Military Avenue in the Cheriton area. The area benefits from relatively close proximity to several primary schools, with Cheriton Primary School being the closest at 0.63km. Transportation links appear reasonable, with Folkestone West station approximately 2.06km away. The apartment itself, judging from the provided images, appears to be newly built or recently renovated and is presented in excellent condition. The finishes and fixtures look modern and high-quality. However, a significant drawback is the lack of outdoor space; the plot size is listed as 0.00 sqft. Considering the average price per sqft in the area is £325 and this property has 545 sqft, a reasonable expectation for the price might be in the region of £177,000. The list price of £217,500 is therefore significantly higher than this estimate. While the condition and location are positive factors, the lack of land and the higher-than-average price per sqft compared to the area average suggests the property may not represent exceptional value for money. Nearby properties on Royal Military Avenue show a range of prices, but none offer direct comparables due to missing sqft data. The average price in the area is significantly higher (£341,706), suggesting that the list price may be more appropriate in comparison to the overall average, but not in comparison to the average price per sqft.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
